Re: WTF JasonD

IT's not a server problem......

It's between your computer and the website, the thing that forwards you here and translates your words into "go to camaroz28.com"

i've been having the same problem

instead type this in. http://64.65.63.61/forums youll get in all day

Re: WTF JasonD

Your DNS server is screwed up. As stated, its the intermediary between your computer and the server. When you type in www.something.com it looks at your DNS server and says whats the IP address, it "Resolves" this to xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx and then sends your browser to the website. Since the IP address changed from xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx to something else, your DNS (which updates itself automatically) hasn't updated itself you, so it doesn't know the correct IP address. Use the IP posted above for a few days, should allow your ISP's DNS to update itself, which usually happens every day or few days.

Re: WTF JasonD

Yeah, shame on me for not being able to control the DNS's of all the ISP's in the world. How could I let something like that happen?

Relax, the DNS needs to update properly and can take time.

No, I can't because I don't control the DNS's...the ISP's do.

Here's a GREAT example...you have a cell phone site, right? Asking me to why the DNS isn't updated is like me asking you why my cell phone drops calls 25% of the time. Get it now?

Like we said, give it some time and it will all be updated.

Moving this to the right forum...where it will be right next to the other thread just like it.
